Font size

Gleich zu Beginn der Pressekonferenz fällt auf: Die wichtigste Person fehlt. Elif Eralp, die Wahlsiegerin der Linken, ist krank. Bis Ende der Woche, teilt ihr Sprecher den dutzenden Journalisten an diesem Donnerstagnachmittag mit, sei Eralp noch krankgeschrieben. Sie richte aber Grüße aus.

Und so findet der mögliche Gründungsmoment einer Berliner Koalition, über die in den vergangenen Tagen das halbe Land gestritten hat, ohne ihre mögliche Bürgermeisterin statt. Anstatt Eralp richtet sich also die Berliner Linken-Vorsitzende Kerstin Wolter an die »Berlinerinnen und Berliner«. Wolter stellt an diesem Nachmittag gemeinsam mit den Spitzenkandidaten von SPD und Grünen eine Vereinbarung vor, die die Parteien in insgesamt vier Gesprächen zum Umgang mit Antisemitismus getroffen haben.

Down syndrome: Bundestag wants to examine the use of prenatal tests

The Bundestag has adopted a motion to introduce monitoring for non-invasive prenatal blood tests with a large majority. The aim is to collect more data about the practical application of the tests, which have been paid for by statutory health insurance companies under certain conditions since 2022. Critics fear that the tests could become routine, while supporters emphasize that access should not be made more difficult if there is a medical indication. The results of the monitoring should be available by the end of June 2027.
